Good to see you folks out and about Bob!! Great video. I file a notch in the end to help the plunger pop in place. Thank you Bob. Take care, Vern

[@fusionfirearms]

Our pleasure! yes, the notch is a great idea, We will do an update on the notch, that is a great idea.

@@fusionfirearms Folks, while it's a great idea it still should be done by qualified pistolsmiths like Bob and crew!!!

Bob Can You Do A Video Showing The Staking of The Plunger Tube on To The Frame Thanks In Advance 😀😎

[@fusionfirearms]

Yes I will, thanks for the suggestion

[@USGunnery]

Excellent definition but. Do really need a bushing wrench for disassembly?

[@fusionfirearms]

Sometimes, On a mil spec generally not, on match grade pistols you will generally need a wrench.

[@USGunnery]

Bob, Can you show the dimensional requirements for a Para/Clark frame cutout. Are there any special considerations to a ramped barrel fitment.

[@fusionfirearms]

Yes, I will get something posted up on this and I will do a video on the fitting, we are doing many fitting videos now and will have a series of barrel fitting coming out soon. if you email me I will try to get you the drawing.... [e-mail]

This is something you improve with on your 1st 1911. Then you do it in a minute.

[@fusionfirearms]

Yes, excellent!

Will having too strong of recoil spring cause slide stop not to work? I went to a 13# on a gun that had cycling issues. Now the slide doesn't lock back. Even with 124 gr nato spec ammo. It came with a really weak spring that was having ftf. Functions 100٪ with ammo but doesn't lock back. Thinking of going to an 11#. Gun is a 9mm 5".

[@fusionfirearms]

Exactly, Yes, it will depend on resistance in your assembly, I usually start with a 10# or 12#.

@@fusionfirearms ran it today. 100% with an 11# spring.
